Choosing a center channel

Is this for music, or HT? I went from full surround to two channel for music, and also watch movies with the same system at times. If your room is good and your speakers are setup correctly you really shouldn’t “need” a center channel. Center oriented voice etc. should pretty much smack you in the face.

@ dadork... depends on how the system is setup. Most multi channel amps have the ability to select the output amp configuration, some even on the fly. If, yes you are talking strictly multi channel output you are correct. Perhaps I wasn’t clear with what I wrote. I no longer have a multi channel amp. If splitting time with a two channel setup, if the speakers are set correctly, dialog is just fine. Some think a multi channel setup is “necessary” to have a good movie experience, that isn’t necessarily true. Ultimately, it depends on desire for the systems main function. Multi channel systems kill musical fidelity, but two channel systems can perform both very well.
